## Project summary

The Planning Inspectorate project-page text observed on 1 October 2026 described the project as pre-application, with an application expected in July 2027. This is a reported status and forecast, not confirmation of submission or later progress. 

The planned development includes a CCGT generating plant with carbon capture, with generation anticipated at approximately 900 MW. The description includes gas and electricity connections whose routes were to be determined, potential cooling-water infrastructure, and carbon-dioxide transport expected to use the separate Viking CCS pipeline. The connection to that pipeline is described as part of a separate project and consenting process. 

The main site is approximately 4 km south-east of Immingham.

## Evidence limits and unknowns

- The supplied text does not establish whether the application was submitted after the stated July 2027 expectation or whether the project has since progressed.
- The supplied description does not establish the selected gas-pipeline or electricity-connection routes, whether potential cooling-water infrastructure will proceed, or procurement availability.
- Only the supplied project-page text was reviewed. Email-containing and link-only paragraphs, linked documents and graphical content were outside the review.
- Later project progress and purchasing availability are unverified.

Current purchasing availability: unknown.
Source-dated plans do not establish current progress or available supplier packages.

Derived from the reviewed scope statement; delivery stage remains unclassified.
The project comprises the construction and operation of the Stallingborough CCGT generating plant and CCP which is anticipated to generate approximately 900 megawatts of electricity. Natural gas will be transported to the Main Site by a pipeline from the Ulceby and Habrough area in an easterly direction. Electricity will be supplied from the Main Site into the grid by a new electrical connection leading in a southerly direction to the existing West Grimsby substation. The Stallingborough CCGT generating plant and CCP is located within land owned by the Applicant’s Group, whereas the route for the natural gas pipeline and electricity connection, which is owned by a number of third parties, will be determined as part of the route selection and iterative environmental impact assessment processes. The potential cooling water infrastructure would be located within the Humber estuary where the foreshore is owned by the Crown Estate and the potential laydown area at the RWE CHP Grimsby site is under RWE ownership.The Main Site will be fitted with carbon capture equipment and carbon dioxide will be transported to offshore geological storage under the north sea and this transport and storage is expected to utilise the separate Viking CCS pipeline (PINS case reference EN070008). A connection between the Main Site and the Viking CCS pipeline will be delivered as a part of a separate project and consenting process.
